Rear axle bang

When I accelerate fast off the line I get a loud bang from the rear. Smooth acceleration, no problem. I suspect maybe the torque is winding up the axle so it strikes the frame. Am I on the right track? And is there a solutuion?

    Apparently this is a stumper. Any thoughts? Throw me a bone!

SOURCE: Right rear window is off the tracks. How do I remove the panel?

if the window is off track the regulator is probably bad. to remove the door panel should be a couple of screws by the inside pull handle and possibly one by the door handle itself also check the bottom of the door for any then just pull it off and lift up to clear latches and remove plastic film to get to inside of the door

SOURCE: right rear axle seal leaks

If only your axle seals are leaking then just remove one axel at a time. Take it to an automotive machine shop where they will press of the old seals bearings and reatainer and press on a new seal barring and reatainer all greased up and ready to slide back into place. No need to replace the whole axle for a leaky seal. Once this is done with both sides ( assuming both sides are leaking) refil the differential so the oil just starts to ooze out of the fill hole and replace the cap. Presto you are good to go. Also an important note. Make sure sure rear breaks are not soaked in 90W oil. This will impede your breaking ability and cause a dangerous situation. If the break pads are soaked they will most likely need to be replaced.

BOTH CV AXLES & TORQUE AXLE REPLACED. UPON ACELL GET VIBRATION GOES AWAY AT ABOUT 25MPH. WHERE IS VIBRATION COMING FROM?

Check for a worn universal joint on the drive shaft going to the rear wheels.

Check your transmission fluid level. (Low level can cause vibration on acceleration.)

Check to see if your transmission filter needs changing.

Does it only vibrate under heavy acceleration?

Serious vibration when accelerating or holding speed; smooth when coasting

Hello,

If problem only occurs 'under power' sounds like a u-joint (driveline - rear wheel drive) or a cv-axle (front wheel drive). Check for excessive play, fluid, boot tear and breakage.

Tachometer bounces up and down in my 2002 Chevy S10 during fast acceleration. Truck has been in the shop for a week. Rear outer seals and bearings replaced, left rear axle replaced, serpinten belt...

My guess would be the transmission bands are slipping. This would cause what you describe. First check the transmission fluid and make sure it is full. Check it according to the instructions in your owners manual. If you only had an issue with the tach I would suspect a loose ground wire, but considering the transmission is acting up you more than likely have a transition issue that is just being reflected in the tach.

Very occasionaly ( 3 times in the last 4 months ) when i decelerate at a corner and then accelerate I have a loud bang. It apears to be the gearbox. Other than that I have no problems with gear changes...

If this happens when you turn both ways, I would suspect an engine or transmission mount. When you accelerate the engine is being lifted somewhat off the frame and the bang would be when it comes back down. If you only hear it on say a right turn, then I would suspect a CV axle or possibly a ball joint on the right side. Hope this helps.

Loud banging noise frome rear of car under normal acceleration and even worse accelerating during a left turn. makes the car jolt pretty good. 2000 mustang gt

Were the rear muffler tailpipe hangers checked for being broken or missing? even Engine mounts will cause this and because it does making a left turn you would want to check out the right rear one especially and of course if needed replace all of them...also meaning the hangers for the exhaust system..

Humming

Chances are it's the tires rather than the engine.
Does the hum diminish if you back off the accelerator? If yes, then look at rear axle pinion bearing. If no, then feel across the tires. They should be smooth across. If they're rough, they will make a loud howling noise.
